“The Chinese even renamed one of their villages so they could label their pottery ‘made in Bolesławiec’,” says one of the producers of Poland’s iconic ceramics. Even Coca-Cola wanted its own Bolesławiec pots. So why is the industry in crisis? “Nobody wants to do handicrafts anymore”

Imagine things being so bad that your best solution is to cut yourself off from Google Search traffic. I don't think that people realise just how much of a bad actor Google has been, for year. No other company has damaged the web nearly as much. 🧵 www.adweek.com/media/publis...

"Try me, sucker!" ("попробуй насоси" – literally: "try to pump") pretty much sums up Russian economic successes A bit of context: this "Soviet Nintendo" was a knockoff of Western handheld gaming devices and an iconic toy for kids across the Eastern Bloc in the 1980s

🌾⛽️"The situation is critical." Russia faces grain harvest losses due to diesel shortages. The 2026 harvest is turning into a nightmare for Russian farmers, who are facing diesel fuel shortages, restrictions on sales, and rising prices.

Cute “baa” instead of dreadful “vroom”. A Polish car dealer from Września, near Poznań, uses sheep instead of lawn mowers on its solar farm 🐑☀️ Meanwhile, scientists are studying the impact of solar panels on the ecosystem beneath them #agrivoltaics

At this point even Trump himself can’t tell if his promises will be kept – by himself or by whoever comes next

„It’s dangerous to go to Moscow, as there are too many Ukrainian drones“. Zelensky’s reply to Trump is a reminder that he remains a one-liner machine✌🏼

Ukraine struck energy infrastructure in Russia’s Belgorod early Friday, causing major power and water outages after facilities caught fire. The strike came one day after Russia launched 570 aerial weapons at Kyiv, killing at least 30 people and injuring around 100. www.kyivpost.com/post/79482

Just moved to my shelter as we expect a horrible night here in Kyiv, as a large-scale attack from Russia is underway. A hotel has been hit in the central district of Shevchenkivskyi, there is already a strong smell of burn in the air. Thousands of people are now underground.

Western intel sources say Russia is preparing a big aerial attack on Ukraine, with Kyiv possibly the main target. Russian drones have already descended on the capital, bombers equipped with missiles are in the air. It may be a long night. Bomb shelters and underground metro stations are filling up.

Dire que les discussions se sont bien passées est mauvais signe

Did they discuss earning $1bn thanks to presidency?

I’ve just watched “Citizen vigilante”. It’s so bad on so many levels. Armie Hammer as an American nazi millionaire murderer thinking he’s the good guy. High school etude level acting. Feels like a 30-second Tik-tok’s rage-bait clip expanded into 90-mins feature film.

I'm curious to see how @telegraph.co.uk evolves under @axelspringer.bsky.social. They are a stable publisher; this move bolsters their international footprint and adds the oldest title to their portfolio. For the newspaper, it truly marks a new chapter in its 172-year history

Yeah, no. That is definitely not a desired social strategy if you’re older than 12. (even if you low-key think this way)

Former Polish president Andrzej Duda bought a second-hand Porsche Boxster and all hell broke loose. Even the lamp workshop has found itself at the centre of a political row. Former owners are publishing statements, and the import from the US is under scrutiny. Just everyday post-politics

Mao Zedong fought a war against sparrows and lost. Donald Trump fought a war against algae—and, well, didn’t win either.

A lot of media coverage of the ‘AI’ reading of the Herculaneum scrolls really fails to understand what’s happened here. There’s no language processing happening, the AI/ML is not trained on a corpus of texts or language. It can detect ink to see shapes. HUMAN EXPERTS are then transcribing the text.

Actually missed this one. Fortunately this didn’t affect The Empress Ursula or her Commissioners on the top floors, only the staffers on the lower levels (pun intended) The EC boasts lower energy consumption in their buildings y/y, that is one way to reach those targets

What Mélenchon is suggesting aligns with the Russian imperial playbook: whoever speaks French belongs to the French empire – in this case, francophone Belgians. The analogy is almost too obvious

So, how the peace talks are going? Oh…

Even my old house gets hot after a few days of +30*C weather. So, yeah, a portable AC is the best money I’ve spent in recent years.

The Russian Defense Ministry says it intercepted 660 Ukrainian drones overnight over 12 Russian regions, as well as the illegally annexed Crimea, the Azov and the Black Sea.

Tucker #Carlson rooting for #JD this much and – not directly – criticising #Trump in the same interview Will they try to invoke the 25th next year? Succession less than two years before the end of the term would mean JD still eligible for two full terms

But seriously, @netflix.com, your screenwriters are on it, right?

Of course it is not a Ponzi scheme. But, well, most of stock investors are capital providers, not big winners

SIKORSKI: 3-day “special military operation” has come to Moscow. Ukrainian attack on Moscow is propaganda catastrophe for Putin, domestically and internationally. And significant blow to Russia’s capacity to produce diesel and petrol, without which Russian war machine can't run.

❗️Since early morning, a large number of 🇺🇦Ukrainian kamikaze drones have been detected in the 🇷🇺Moscow region. The drones are moving towards Moscow

We live in the funniest of all universes

. @andriuskubilius.ec.europa.eu (h/t @leonoraklint.bsky.social) thinks instead of mass-producing "good enough" weapons for self-defence, Europe over-focuses on expensive, high-tech hardware. Meanwhile, Polish 155mm ammo stocks will last for 2 weeks in a potential war.

Is coffee crisis imminent? New trends and product categories makes demand growing much faster than production. It’s crucial for big companies so they invest heavily in regenerative agriculture. Is it enough? I had a chance to visit Brazil to see it myself. Full report soon in Forbes Polska
